The main aim for this study is to identify how small holder farmers in Elgeyo Marakwet County, northwest Kenya, are the drivers of innovation for agricultural methods, and how we may harness these processes in collaboration with other institutions in order to promote sustainable intensification of agriculture, as it is the backbone of the economy of many African countries. This is done through analysis of secondary data previously collected by the IGP PROCOL Kenya team and primary quantitative data in the form of semi-structured in-depth interviews with farmer in the Elgeyo Marakwet County.
